For those 15 seconds, you are practically gaining (up to) 15% extra healing through the Shield.

Blizzard are experts at twisting words. This is a very welcome item that I'll probably never see. :D

it like a priests divine aegis. differences being priests have to get a critical heal for the shield to proc, but it happens every critical heal, no matter what.

the mace seems to have a chance (10% apparently) to apply a buff where any heal adds a shield.

not too bad. in the hands of a disc priest this would be amazing.

Shields all around!

Thins we don't know about Val'anyr:

Who the $%^& those Ancient Kings are.

How ancient are they?

Which nation did they rule?

When you take the fragments to the Archivum Console, it is revealed that it was created by the titans and given to Urel Stoneheart, the first Earthen king, to use it to give life to the rest of the Earthen.

no hunter loot? aww...

and ill guess we have to wait along time before a hunter legendary comes...probably near the end of WoTLK, but probably not at the (upcomeing) Arthas raid.

(And no, Atiesh doesn't count, since it's useable by more than one class because of it's different forms)

I also think these fragments drop on Normal Ulduar, but in hard mode.

One of our guild ten mans downed Flame Leviathan with one tower up and I'm pretty sure one fragment dropped for them (luckily the healer that was designated to get all the fragments was there, so now she's up to 3-4 of them)

Bornakk just posted an answer to many questions including internal CD, shield duration and more:

"The way this works is that when the proc happens (which is a 10% chance whenever a hot or direct spell heals, with a 45 sec internal cooldown) you gain a buff (the Blessing) on yourself. Now all of your heals for the next 15 sec cause an 8 sec damage shield. The shield stacks with itself. It includes healing done by subsequent ticks of existing hots on the target. Note that the spell has to actually heal, so hots ticking on a fully-healed target cannot cause the proc. However the shield is based on the size of the heal itself, not the amount healed – i.e. 100% overhealing will not proc the Blessing on the healer, but the shield itself includes overhealing once the Blessing is active. The shield can grow to a maximum size of 20,000 damage absorbed."
